DEATH OF A BRIGHT YOUNG MAN.

Franklin Harding, son of J. G. and Z J., ,
died ut the family home on Hewitt avenue,
West Side, last Friday afternoon, September
lS, at O'Clock, after an aflliction of more
of less severity of six years
he was boy OF unusually bright mind,
with thoughts on many thingsfar in advance
OF boys of his age, taking as he did, great in
tarest in the growth and prosperity OF our
city, knowing ct the same tine that his stay
here was to be very short. He possessed in
Very great degree faculty of recognizing
new forms of developments-the various
styles OF architecture, for instance-and
their influence upon the people who
came in contact with them. He often spoke
of our numerous churches and institutions
II learning as being things which go SD far
towards making desirable city in which to
live. This, from olier and more mature
minds would not seem uncommon, but com
ing from one just turning into his seventeenth
year shows a ripeness of mind rarely seen.
Six years ego he was attacked with an
acute form of rhumatism and ever since Re
has been sufferer from 1t, often almost De
=
murmured.
Three years ago he joined the Methodist
Episcopal church and since that time has
been faithful christian boy.
There was in him conspicou. absence of
anything frivolous or giidy-a feature o;tsn
50 common in boys of his age His
funeral took place from Dodge
Avenue N. E church, of which he pas
member. His remains were followed TO tie
cemessry by almost all the members IF the
congregation, besides many others who had
Known and loved him and had so affection
a1ely watched him in his last sickness

sympathy of all who know them in their sad
bereavement

DIR. PRENTICE.

The career of DR.. Prentice since his
advent on this coast, has been one OF q
most remarkable character. Although
he came here with reputation of the
highest standing as physician and sur
geoE, yet we scarcely could have ex-
pected that it would be possible for any
man to accomplish in the short space
OF four months the astonishing results
that DIR. Prentice has attained in that
short space of time. When we state
the fact, whichis true, that he has oper-
ated upon nearly six husdred cases of
stfabismus, or cross-eyes it seems incred-
ible, for this is undoubtedly greater
number than all the combined surgeons
of the coast have operated on in ten
years. A number OF these operations
he has performed within quarter
of minute, and all of his cases have
been perfectly successful, not even
one in this vast number have been
compelled to wear a bandage, for
he causes SO little irritation to the
eye that no inflammation follows the
operation. Many of these cases had
been given up as hopeless by the most
eminent physicians of high standing on
the coast. His cures of stammerers or
Sufferers that have been treated with
ont any benefit by others, are the talk
and wonder of the coast. Cases where
people who have been unable to talk or
hold conversation from earliest child
hood are sometimes cured within one
hour. One Of these cases is that OF L..
S. Mastick, of 10 Post Street, San
Francisco, Cal. He has made so many
cures of exceedingly bad cases of Catarrh,
some of over fifty years standing, that a
Company has offered him $4,000 for
the secret and the right to use them,
which the Doctor promptly refused as
his own practice is worth at least $780,
600 (seventy-five thousand dollars) a
year. In all cases of Cross-Eyes, Siam
mering and Piles, it is necessary for
the patient to come to the Doctors
Office for at least one day. Al
though he prefers in all cases to see his
patients where it is possible, yet in cases
of Catarrah, Female Weakness, Deaf
ness, Rheumatism, Kidney and Liver
Complaint, by sending very careful
description or diagnosis of the case he is
able to effect perfect and permanent
cures.
Persons wishing to visit the doctor, or
wishing treatment by mail, should send
or come at once, as he will positively
leave on the 9th of June to visit the
hospitals OF Europe, which he makes a
practice of doing nearly every year.
This rare opportunity should be lost by
none. His offices are 626 Sutter Street,
San Francisco, Cal.
Those wishing treatment by mail can
write DIR. Prentice even after he leaves.
His letters will be forwarded to him in
Europe and his medicines will be
promptly sent patients.

Something About Big Canals.

A British engineer named Boyd, who
has visited the Panama canal, and since his
return has read paper before the En-
gineers' society at London, reports that
the excavation will go slower in the
future than in the past. He thinks for
the rest of the work 1900, ,000,0 ,000f. and
twelve years of time will be required
that is to say, $40, 900, 900, in addition
to what has already been sunk. Long
before that time the Nicaragua canal
ought to overtake De Lesseps' enterprise,
to say nothing of bankruptcy. Admiral
Ammen, in pamphlet recently issued,
cites the case of the Caledonia canal of
Scotland, which is 60 miles from sea to
sea, 81 miles by lake and % by canaliza-
ton, and reaches summit level of 102
feet, or only feet less than that of the
Nicaragua canal. Yet the owners of YES
sells are glad to save short sea voyage
of only 400 miles by locking over this
height. The cost of the Caledonia, which
is 1870 feet wide and 20 feet deep, was
only $500,000. The Nicaragua passage
is 10 miles long, GA by river and Sc by
lake, leaving only so for canal, the out
side cost of which is estimated at less than
$50, 1000, 900, including railroad and seven
locks.-Scientific Journal.

Farming In Japan.

An American writer who visited some
of the most important of the agricultural
districts of Japan in company with Gen.
Van Buren, United States consul general
at Yokohama, has published an interesting
account of what be saw and heard. OF
labor saving instruments or machines
Japan has very few. Even the plow is
but little used, broad plated mattock
being the principal tool for stirring the
Soii, and there is not flour mill IN the
country, unless the hand grinding ma
chino similar to that depicted on the
tombs of the ancient Egyptians can be
called by that name. Wheat is for the
most part hnlled and eaten as rice is, that
which Is ground being made into unleav-
ened cakes There is no word in the Jap
anesc language for bread, nor any pro-
cess In the national cookery analogous to
yeast fermentation.
In many parts of the country the soil is
extremely fertile and the cultivation is ex-
cellent. Near Kioto, the old capital, it is
not uncommon to grow seventy bushels of
rice TO the acre as the second crop Of the
year from the same land which had pro-
duced forty bushels of wheat as winter
crop. Nor is this all the years produce,
for early vegetables are sown between the
rows of wheat in February, maturing
with the latter in May After the wheat
harvest the land is prepared for and
planted with rice, which Is harvested in
October. Barley and rye, like wheat, are
planted in the autumn Maize is culti-
waited to some extent and millet is pro-
duced abundantly in attitudes where rice
win not flourish. The farmers manure
the Land heavily and stir it great num-
Der of times between harvesting and sew
ing, also cultivating between the rows
after the corn is up.-Chicago Times.

The Art of War.

The command of large army tasks
the resources of the greatest mind. 1t is
one of the highest of human achieve
ments, and by common consent the first
rank of fame is accorded to the great
generals. To move an army and to feed
it on the march requires higher order of
generalship than to fight it. Thirty hours
without supplies would reduce the best
army to helpless mass of disorganized
humanity. Food for the men, forage for
the animals must not only be provided,
but must be at the precise spot when
wanted. Napoleon, the great master of
the art of war, had a score of marshals,
any one of whom could fight a great
battle, and scarce one of whom could
lead an army on the march. An army
ON the march resembles nothing so much
as an enormous serpent, stretched out
mile upon mile, and moving, alert and
watchful, with steady and irresistible
force. Let danger threaten and it hastily
coils itself together and prepares to avert
or overcome the danger. Shrunk to a
fraction of its former dimensions. it
shows its fangs and is ready for attack or
defense. The danger overpast, the great
mass unfolds its coils again and stretches
out its huge proportions in progressive
movement. The brain of this mighty
animal, the supreme mind that controls
its every motion, is the general in chief.

r..nee,. Two oyster Beds.

The two principal centers of oyster cul-
tllre in France are at Arcachon and
Auray. The bay of Arcachon has since
1854 held foremost place in oyster
breeding. In 1857 there We're 90 parts,
or district oyster beds; in 1866 the num-
Der had increased TO 297, with an output
of over 10000. 900 oysters. AT the pres
ent time the little bay, which has total
area of $1,000 acres, has oyster beds
covering an area of 5000 acres, which
provide annually about 800, 200, 900 oys-
tiers for consumption. With regard to
the oyster beds at Auray, on the coast of
Brittany, these, though not so important
as those of Arcachon, have still consid-
cradle output, and, from being exhaus-
tive and unproductive when their rehab-
ilitation was first undertaken, have be-
come full to oyerhowing.-New York
Tribune.
